Founded by (the late) Shri Gopal Krishna Gokhale in 1911, The Hitavada has been Central Indias largest-selling English daily newspaper for decades. It is one of the oldest newspapers in India and was launched with a specific aim of serving the great struggle for Independence from the alien rule. The Hitavada has grown from strength to strength in the past three decades, and has entered the centenary year with a confidence to march ahead keeping intact the ideals laid down by founder Shri Gopal Krishna Gokhale.
